The home crowd had a good time watching the St. Louis Explorers and Kansas City Bulls get after it.

A 5-RBI performance from John Villalobos helped the Kansas City Bulls beat the St. Louis Explorers, 12-0. Paul Geary, the winning pitcher, is now 3-4. He went 7.2 innings, allowing no runs on 5 hits, while fanning 8 and walking 3.

With Kansas City leading 8-0 in the bottom of the seventh, Villalobos came up to bat against St. Louis pitcher Jorge Gonzalez. Villalobos hit a fastball to left for a 3-run home run. His 9th home run of the season put the Bulls on top, 11-0.

Said St. Louis manager Ray Fleetwood after the blowout loss: "Son of a gun."

The last-place Bulls have won 5 in a row.
